• MUSIC CLASS WITH MRS. HOPPEY
     
    Kindergarten through 6th grade receive music at least once a week.  Some sections receive music twice a week, depending on their schedule.  Students in music class learn about the joys of music in a variety of ways.  They are engaged in making music through singing, moving and playing instruments.  In addition to making music, they learn about music theory, music history, composers and several cross-curricular topics, including math, science, language, world history, art and culture.  
     
    When a student cannot attend music class, for whatever reason, they need to refer to their Music Teams page to see what to do for a missed class. That information is posted at the beginning of the MUSIC TEAM PAGE in the general channel.  
     
    Here is a list of standards each student is exposed to throughout the year in music class.
